Ryan Banta (Ellicott City, Md. / Marriotts Ridge) had a great day in the 60 meter dash with a 7.26 in the prelims, and followed that up with a 7.15 in the finals to give him an eleventh place finish. Banta was able to secure a 23.42 in the 200 on the tight turns of Bucknell's track.

Andrew Sarver(Olney, Md. / Sherwood) opened his career up with solid leap of 19-5.25 to give himself a look to a bright future to go along with his 9.79 in the 60 hurdles.
